Jessy's parents say she acts more like a human than a monkey. In fact, they say she doesn't even like other monkeys and prefers to play with children instead. But Jessy's parents have to be careful because she still has many animal-like qualities about her. She has even swatted a child. Lori says that as a precaution they had Jessy's teeth removed.
